the nats have kicked my ass this year. here's a writeup i saw earlier.
Washington continues to perform better than the odds-makers and general public want to believe they are. We nailed them last night at +150 and we'll get on them again here. The Nats rank third to the moneyline in all of baseball. This team is 24-19 over their last 43 games. They have done it with some young starting pitching and a bullpen that ranks fourth in the NL. They have gone 5-2 vs. left handed pitchers on the road during this surge, averaging 7 runs per game. They are 6-2 on the road when they are a +150 dog or less vs. a LHP. The Astros are just 12-15 in games started by Woody Williams, and he is backed by a bullpen that ranks second to last in the NL. The Nats have won Mike Bacsik's last six starts.
